BioWare Blog: Jay Watamaniuk Joins the ME Team

A quick blog post by BioWare’s Chris Priestly outlines Jay Watamaniuk’s decision to join the Mass Effect writing team and the contributions he made to the community team over the last eight years.

Without Jay, there would have been no BioWare Wednesdays. That was his idea and he worked hard each week to support it.

Without Jay, Community would not be attending conventions like Gen-Con & PAX or holding the builder events we’ve held.

Without Jay, much of the upcoming Social Site would not be nearly as cool as it will be.

…

Monday, Jay starts a new job here at BioWare. Jay has always wanted to be a writer (if you’ve enjoyed the good writing on the BioWare Blog or laughed at the newsletter you’ll have seen a glimmer of his talent) and he’s moving onto the Mass Effect writing team to help fulfill his dream. He’ll still be stopping by the forums from time to time, twittering, blogging and such, but now Community will have to soldier on without him.
